Service Details

A caterer works closely with clients in designing, preparing, and serving food for events such as wedding dinners, charity balls, holiday brunches, office lunches, birthday parties, and any other occasion where people come together. As a caterer, you will be required to prepare food menus based on the choice and budget of your client. Your menu can include appetizers, salads, sandwiches, delicacies, and any of your trademark meals that bear your signature as the caterer. It is important to include various types of foods for vegans, non-vegans, and gluten-free meals in your menu. There are different ways you can offer your services, either by cooking at the venue or delivering the food there. There are some hosts that require the caterer to set up the food area, set tables, chairs, sofas, and other furniture for guest seating. It is also the responsibility of the caterer to clean up the food and dining area when the event is done. This includes removing plates, glasses, silverware, and linens from the tables and cleaning the garbage. As a caterer, you must understand how certain meals work together, have strong interpersonal skills, particularly listening skills, and be able to manage cooking and serving staff.
